long other valuable information

AMONG other valuable information dissent
mated by college graduates during the past few
weeks have been elaborate instructions as to the
best methods of purifying political parties. Not
having been privileged to listen to these ora
tions, the Journal cannot say what plans of
publication the young gentlemen regard as the
best; but fer the benefit of others who failed to
hear the words Of wisdom a recipe is herewith
offered which has the merit of having been
tested Il is simply this: Join the muswumps.
The Republican party has never been i'm
macuate as since the withdrawal Of these per
sons from its borders. This mode of publication
is a little severe upon the Democratic party, to
which the mugwumps have attached themselves,
but that is a matter that has nothing to do with
the point in question. The Democratic party is
past reformation. and discussions on internal
improvements do not apply to it.
